Ha, yes I think it is even less. However, the way they built the stadium, they did it so it can be expanded for a lot more fans and in hte future I think eventually, they will make it a decent (competitive) stadium. A lot fo teh new football team is based on growth, such as a band for instance that will be nonexistant until there is some growth. I think it will happen though, UNCC is just exploding and is getting tougher I know from first hand expereience, its been my second home for research purposes for a long time. I think the statement was a wishful thinking one, while I love UNCC, there are better options.

Even still, I pass the stadium frequentley and I think it looks awesome. I'm biased being a student but seeing that beauty instead of basically nothing is great. It's really nice and people in Charlotte should be happy about it.

I remember when we were awarded the team, the initial plan was to play our first season in Columbia (USC), however the University thought the Panthers would detract from Gamecock games played on the Saturday prior, like that would ever happen.

I just want to know what's going on with that huge lot owned by Charlotte Pipe on Morehead St. right down from the stadium. Perfect for tailgating but I think they have other ideas which would be more lucrative.

Like a lollipop park.

LOL -Lollipop park...It would be cool to have an entertainment complex at that location...sports bars, a "Panther Hall Of Fame" etc. It could be "party central" on game days!
